Description

Tropomyosin-4 CAS NO 164638-24-8 is a specific isoform of the tropomyosin protein, a key regulatory component of the thin filament in muscle and non-muscle cells. This compound is essential for research and development in life sciences, particularly for studying cytoskeletal dynamics, muscle contraction mechanisms, and cellular signaling pathways. It is primarily utilized by biotechnology firms, academic research institutions, and pharmaceutical companies engaged in cardiovascular, neurological, and oncological research.

Application

• Biochemical Research: Used as a critical reagent in studies of actin filament regulation and stability.
• Diagnostic Development: Serves as a potential antigen or standard in the development of assays for autoimmune diseases.
• Drug Discovery: Employed in high-throughput screening platforms to identify novel therapeutics targeting the cytoskeleton.
• Cell Biology Studies: Essential for investigating cell motility, morphology, and intracellular transport processes.
• Protein-Protein Interaction Analysis: Used to study its binding with actin, troponin, and other regulatory proteins.
• Educational & Reference Material: Supplied to academic laboratories for teaching advanced concepts in muscle physiology and cell biology.
